The Nova Scotia Nature Trust has completed its purchase of a wilderness area just 20 minutes from downtown Halifax.

The Blue Mountain Wilderness Connector is 220 hectares, three times the size of Point Pleasant Park, between two sections of provincially protected land — the Blue Mountain-Birch Cove Lakes in Hammonds Plains.
